Oversee construction strategy and delivery across multiple complex projects, ensuring they’re completed safely, on time and within budget.
Drive innovation and new ways of working through the supply chain — improving safety, quality, and efficiency.

A deep understanding of construction techniques, engineering processes, and project planning.
Strong leadership and communication skills with the ability to inspire and engage multidisciplinary teams.
Proven experience managing budgets, contracts, and stakeholder relationships.
A forward-thinking approach — open to innovation, collaboration, and change.
